Well wait a minute. There's no need to be insulting about all this. (to Ryan, got ninja'd)

Any idea how much a matching 1929 Colt Police Positive Special with 70% of it's original finish is worth?

[QUOTE=G12-A5;20525175]Well apparently I am getting much more than I thought for my tax return so aside from getting a Tokarev, I am now looking into getting a nice Black Powder Revolver. Right now I'm looking at This [IMG] Or this one [IMG] Not going to Lie I might carry it once and a while but I'll usually carry the tok so these are what I am debating. (Also I do know about the leave the hammer cylinder clear and no round in it. As well as the moisture issue. I will use Wads instead of grease when carrying it rather than plinking. I'm rather short 5'7 and concern about the long barrel is the fact I would like like a child behind the wheel of a big rig with it. But it does look infinitely more sexy than the short barrel. While the short barrel does look quite rugged and sturdy. Possibly easier to carry but its only about 2" shorter. If anyone has any advice on this more please do help me make this decision.[/QUOTE] [img]http://www.partystuffonline.co.uk/Largeimages/251SMF.jpg[/img] Just get something like this instead. It's much more compact and much less expensive, it will however be just as effective and make you look just as goofy. You could probably do more research and find a much more cowboy like weapon if you do so desire, but I find these models to be readily available. Also, ammo is very cheap and readily available.

Like the pistol.

[QUOTE=SBD;20569200]One of those .22 MP5 lookalikes?[/QUOTE] A GSG? Those are amazingly lame. He should instead buy a Grease Gun or some other old C&R SMG. I can't imagine California being so lame that they would ban SMG's that are C&R.

You can probably get a PPSH or a STEN with a closed bolt, semi-auto only and magazines limited to 10 rounds. In other words don't bother.

I doubt there's a problem with a semi auto thompson or grease gun in california. Small enough mag size of course.

I think people were talking about these earlier? [URL]http://www.impactguns.com/store/MGT-6351.html[/URL] Looks pretty awesome.

I just bought a M&P15-22, and I want to know if I can change the handguard to an M16A1 handguard without the shitty rails.

Why not just get a front grip. [editline]10:03PM[/editline] And folding one too.

[QUOTE=zombiefreak;20605751]I just bought a M&P15-22, and I want to know if I can change the handguard to an M16A1 handguard without the shitty rails.[/QUOTE] just buy rail covers, rails are pretty expensive and those rails are probably Troy rails (which are really high-end) [editline]11:02PM[/editline] [QUOTE=dvsilverwing;20589632]I think people were talking about these earlier?

Anyone know if I can shoot in my own home in LA?

I'n gonna guess no, seeing as shooting in high population density areas is illegal, not to mention stupid.
